jacobnorton1 we really cant reveal anytricks

by the way check out the rules that will help you out when you make a new topic

Alright people the method is not simple nor does it involve any "simple" slights. The coin is not eaten as suggested by some of the blog entries. Chris has millions of dollars to throw at these things and some really great artists that assist him in his every endeavor. Stay tuned to this blog. I will be posting the method sometime today if there is any interest. Remember you may not be able to afford to repeat this illusion over and over due to the costs and setup time necessary to pull this off. Stay tuned.

TommyPC - You will not being posting the method of this trick since exposure is forbidden on this and many other Magic Forums.

As for the "great" artists that assist Criss Angel; they have all left him for ethical reasons. Jermay, Thompson, Sankey and Banachek.

I still got a brand new "Surgical Reveal." Thompson left Criss? I did not know that. Any further or more detailed information on that? I said long ago he should have left...long ago. About time he smartened up.

well, is actually a really easy trick and i know how its done, but it does require some props. im not gonna tell u how to do it because i think penguin magic has a no exposure policy or something like that

It’s not an easy trick. It takes hours of preparation and an army of people working behind the scenes. This isn’t a trick you can order online or walk into a local magic shop to purchase. It’s a custom deal.

And you are correct; this forum does forbid exposure of magic. (I suggest you read the forum rules in detail so you won’t have to say “I think” when you participate in the threads).

Do you have some more info on the reason why they left him?

Just read many of the other Criss Angel threads. Also read about what other magicians think of him on the Magic Café website/forum.
Basically – he’s an arrogant moron and his advisors don’t want anything to do with him.

Sankey made a very accurate spoof about him which should reveal the problem with Criss Angel: http://www.penguinmagic.com/discuss/vie ... p?t=146368

I had heard of the others but not this one. Do you have a link as to where I can find out more?

Banachek announced his separation in the last issue of MUM magazine and magicians that know him personally have confirmed this.

Search Magic Café, there are several references to this in discussions regarding Criss Angel’s terrible behavior on Phenomenon and how he treats other magicians with his arrogant attitude.

Thanks, I will look that up. I know that Banachek has been quite protective of Criss in the past so I am interested to look this up.

It's actually called Flesh Wound and you can buy it here:

You are quite mistaken - the magic trick you have referenced is nothing at all like the quarter from arm trick...

Indeed he is. I have Surgical Reveal, and even that is nothing like Criss' fake trickery.
